We've all been there: you open Instagram to check a message from a friend but end up wasting an hour watching videos of alpacas. Before you can open addictive apps, SpeedBump asks you how long you want to use them. The longer you choose, the longer the delay. Once time's up, it annoys you out with rain, dancing cats, and more β helping you stay intentional and accountable.
What to expect from an ideal product
- Set custom time limits before opening Instagram or TikTok to avoid mindless scrolling
- Get gentle reminders with fun animations when your chosen time is up
- Create a moment of pause before diving into social media apps
- Break the endless scroll habit with playful interruptions like dancing cats
- Make social media breaks more intentional by planning your usage time upfront
